# GUISkin

> Defines how GUI looks and behaves.

## Definition

* **Type:** Class
* **Namespace:** [UnityEngine](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityengine.md)
* **Assembly:** UnityEngine.IMGUIModule
* **Inherits from:** [ScriptableObject](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityengine/scriptableobject.md)

```csharp
public sealed class GUISkin : ScriptableObject
```

## Remarks

GUISkin contains GUI settings and a collection of [GUIStyle](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityengine/guistyle.md) objects that together specify GUI skin.

Active GUI skin is get and set through [GUI.skin](/engine/6000.6/script-reference/unityengine/gui/skin.md).
